6. Calculation of the Participation Grade:
 Chapter Summaries: Say there are 15 Chapters we cover in class, the student
who will submit all of them will obtain 100 in that category. If a student submits
any number less than 15 his/her grade will be prorated. Example: 12 Chapters
will be 100*12/15= 80.
 Homework: Same principle.
 Presentation: A grade (from 0 to 100) will be assigned to each student
commensurate with the success of the presentation.
 NO PRESENTATION will be graded with a 0.
The final Participation grade will be an average of the three components described above.
